I had already listened to those bands before when you suggested them. Although, the videos did convince me to revisit Beat Happening.

...I still find their music to be terrible (or a "steaming pile of shit").

No pleasing some people.

Eh, I liked the deadpan vocals and jangly guitar work, but their songs are so damn repetitive. None of them ever really "evolve."

That's true for some of their songs, sure, but there's a beauty in that for me, they take on this almost hypnotic quality. Meh, not for everybody I guess.

would u classify the radio dept. as noise pop?

No, they're dream pop, most certainly dreamy and poppy.

Speaking of Vivian girls, oh boy. I actually saw them live and the bass player was at the merch table. I was deciding what to buy, and I started telling her what I wanted, and when she said how much I was fumbling with my money like a jackass for a minute or two. I eventually got everything straight and handed her the cash and she gave me this funny look. God was I ever embarrassed.

The 2019 Vivian Girls release is quite good.

Memory by Vivian Girls

The singer guitarist actually had the audacity to change her last name to Ramone.
